The question of fluctuating blood pressure is interesting. A personâs blood pressure does fluctuate during the day depending on your activity level. During exercise the blood pressure may rise as high as 230 mm on the systolic and 100-110 mm on the diastolic. However, this will return to the normal range as soon as the exercise stops. And while you are asleep, the blood pressure may go lower than normal, which is normal.
However, normal blood pressure can vary from person to person based on factors such as overall health and family history. Blood pressure is the amount of force (pressure) that blood exerts on the walls of the blood vessels as it passes through them. Most healthcare providers agree that normal adult blood pressure can vary within a range. However, blood pressure can also be too high or too low -- both of which can cause problems.
